KISS Guitarist Talks 'Monster Mini Golf' In New Audio Interview

Criss will write the book with the help of Larry "Ratso" Sloman.

When Criss was inducted on January 14 as part of the latest Drum Legend class during the grand finals of Guitar Center's annual Drum-Off at Club Nokia in Los Angeles, California, he told Artisan News about his upcoming book (see video below), "You'll enjoy it. It's about my life. It's not about just… Of course, it's about drugs, sex and rock and roll. But it's about my parents, my growing up, getting through Brooklyn, going through gangs, getting into drugs, getting out of them, getting through cancer. I'm four years free of cancer now, so that's why I've got my pink shoelaces on. I'm doing great."

In a press release issued last year, Criss said, "I am so blessed that I am finally going to write my autobiography, and I hope you enjoy the ride. The best of all is I get to share my true feelings of my love for God, family, friends and fame. It's been a wonderful life."

While some men feel embarrassed because of "this macho crap," Criss told CNN surviving breast cancer was actually a blessing. He was treated before the tumor could spread and said he was speaking about male breast cancer to raise the profile of this rare disease.

Criss, who played drums for KISS and was known as "Catman," offered this advice to men who spot lumps in their breast: "Don't sit around playing Mr. Tough Guy. Don't say 'It's going to go away.' It might not and you might not see life anymore and how beautiful that is."

Criss, who is currently working on a new rock album, told Reuters his bout with cancer had affected his songwriting.

"My lyrics are not so deep and dismal," he said. One of the tracks on the album, expected next year, is called "Hard Rock Knockers".

KISS Guitarist Talks 'Monster Mini Golf' In New Audio Interview

Kiss By Monster Mini Golf, a unique rock 'n' roll-themed amusement attraction based around the world-renowned band KISS, is swinging into Las Vegas. Scheduled to open on March 15, Kiss By Monster Mini Golf is the first of its kind and will include an indoor glow-in-the-dark custom-designed, rockin' 18-hole miniature golf course, a state-of-the-art arcade, the largest KISS gift shop in the world, a KISS Gallery, "Hotter Than Hell" Wedding Chapel, a private VIP Room, FANtastic KISS-themed event rooms and the "Rock 'n Roll All Nite" Cafe. A live DJ will rock the house, throughout the days and many "Crazy, Crazy Nights" with continuous KISS music, trivia, contests and prizes, creating a place embraced by locals, tourists, and rockers of all ages.

To commemorate the launching of the first Kiss By Monster Mini Golf, fans of this legendary band have an opportunity to become immortalized as part of the decor. The KISS Fan Paper will be created with photos sent in by KISS fans doing what they do best, showing off their "KISS." The walls of the venue will be adorned with KISS admirers and will take on a new meaning for the "place to be seen." Pricing starting at only $20 will determine placement and size.

To learn how to become immortalized "Forever," log on to monsterminigolf.com/kiss.

"When the idea of a KISS mini golf course was presented to us, we immediately knew that everyone would want to go to a KISS-themed amusement attraction," said Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons in a joint statement. "There is nothing like KISS mini golf anywhere... It has everything you could ask for: great KISS music, fun games, affordable entertainment in one of the greatest cities in the world and, of course, KISS. A hole in one? One can only dream. Try your luck at the Kiss By Monster Mini Golf."

Monster Mini Golf was founded in 2004 by visionary Christina Vitagliano who had "Great Expectations" to create an enjoyable and affordable amusement facility. Her inspiration expanded to over 30 themed miniature golf courses across the country, where "Unmasked" monsters with lively personalities are par for the course. Her imagination caught the attention of Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley and Kiss By Monster Mini Golf was born. Live Nation Merchandise, the exclusive worldwide merchandise and licensing agent for KISS, brokered this Kiss By Monster Mini Golf deal.

"Introducing the first-ever Kiss By Monster Mini Golf to Las Vegas is an amazing opportunity for us as we expand our Monster Mini Golf creation. It is also a great honor to work with KISS, who are personal favorites of mine," says Monster Mini Golf founder, Christina Vitagliano. "I am confident we are creating a venue that will become a must see attraction in Las Vegas."

Kiss By Monster Mini Golf is located across from the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino at the Shoppes at Harmon Square. (Video)

NEW KISS RETRO ACTION FIGURES

Finally!! "You Want It You Got It" "The Hottest Band in the World" "KISS"

KISS Collectors, Rock Fans get ready. Figures Toy Company is about to introduce KISS action figures, reminiscent of the action figures first released in 1977-1978 by the Mego Toy Company. These figures will have rooted hair, cloth clothing, 16 points of articulation and for the first time will be available in 8 inch as well as a re-release of the 12 inch.

CFO Anthony Balasco states, "I never understood why 8 inch KISS action figures were not produced back in the 1970's when The Mego Toy Company had already released the 12 inch versions. Our first release will have the retro look from the 1970's, but future releases will cover all time periods in KISS's almost 40 year musical career from 1973 to 2012". Look for special exclusives and limited edition releases. Collectors will be able to find these at toy stores, comic shops, music stores and on-line retailers starting in March 2012.

Each 8" KISS action Figure comes with a mini replica Love Gun album cover, and each individual 12" Figure comes with 1 of 4 retro mini KISS concert T-shirts!

The Love Gun Action figures will be followed by Sonic Boom, Dressed To Kill and the first KISS album Figure Series!

Video: Gene Simmons Talks About LIVE, Global Q&A With Stan Lee

Gene Simmons wants to see Mitt Romney as 2012 GOP nominee

Rock icon Gene Simmons was just one of the many stars plugging something of a different kind at the Park City, Utah-based film festival this year His venture is Ortsbo.com, a real-time experimental language translation platform, which enables folks from all the around the world to engage in conversation in their native language.

But technology and tunes aside, there is something else the “KISS” star likes to discuss – politics.

“I want a real political and economic debate. On the one hand, you've got President Obama, who I voted for, last minute. I wasn't going to vote for him because he didn't have a good resume. He only had two years of local political experience, he's never run a company, he'd never been overseas, and he didn't know any of the political leaders. I voted my conscience, based on some sort of - well, it's the right time in history,” Simmons told FOX411’s Pop Tarts column prior to Tuesday’s Ortsbo-powered Live Q&A with comic book legend Stan Lee during the Sundance Film Festival. “But I want Mitt Romney and Barrack Obama to face off on the economic and political issues of our time. I want a real dialogue, and I, as a private citizen, want to be able to vote my conscience . More often than not, I want business men and business women in politics, not college professors."

The rocker also gave his two cents on why the GOP primary seems to have become a fierce competition focused on more on morality than economic concerns.

"That's because 50 percent of the population are women. They are interested in if the candidate is married, or not –I actually don't care,” he continued. “I want government to become business, because countries aren't businesses."

And although Sundance founder Robert Redford last week vowed that the 34-year-old indie festival, at its heart, was for the “99 percent” and served to share their stories – Simmons found such a remark a little off-the-mark.

"Redford means well, he's a great guy. But it's a bit hypocritical, since he's part of the one percent, to address the 99 percent. The truth is that Sundance represents America, period,” Simmons said. “Either we are all Americans, or you're going to fall victim. This is the reason why the old Roman Empire died, it fell from within. Division from within is one of the stupidest things you can do. So demonstrate all you want, say ‘I don't like this, I don't like that’ – then basically shut up and vote; get somebody you like. If you like Mitt Romney, or President Obama, or Ron Paul - vote whoever it is you like, because that's how you get power."

Simmons added that his platform will help Americans to do so.

"Use Ortsbo to communicate your political message to anybody you'd like, equal access to everybody, that makes it 100 percent not 99 percent,” he added."Ortsbo is the universal language of planet Earth - it's the way people can communicate, without having any communication barriers."
